Crowbear, here are a few more from Mississippi, in no particular order.
1. Charlie Pride
2. Johnny Russell (Opry performer)
3. Marty Stuart
4. Tammy Wynette (born and raised about 10 miles from where I currently live)
5. O.B. McClinton (Had some country success)
6. Rod Brassfield (Opry comedienne)
7. Conway Twitty
These are all of the musicians/singers that I can think of at the moment. There are also some actors from MS as well, but I'm guessing you are asking strictly about people in music.
Oh yeah...how could I forget...
World famous steel guitarist extraordinare...
ME!!!  (Actually I'm from Alabama...currently living in Mississippi) |

Boy, that brings some things to mind.
Imagine Jimmy Rogers 63 years old in 1960.
